I disagree. I think your 'lad' has got it out of kilter in that he seems quite happy to knock people for having an opinion about Agar that differs from his own. It's amazing how many people seem to think that, just because we have won the game, there ought to be total positivity about everything surrounding the club.

Had that knock on leading to the Fox 'try' been missed, this forum would be a very different place tonight. Yes, we got the win, and we'll certainly enjoy it. But if we give Wire a fraction of the cheap possession we gave Rovers we'll be soundly beaten.

But we weren't against Wire, we were against Robins, and we won.

Get a bloody grip.

So because we won against Rovers, we don't need to sort out the obvious flaws in our attacking play, our tendency to cough up the ball in ridiculous positions and our awful discipline? Really?

I am very Fickle

Arise Sir Rich

But if we had lost it would have been Agar's fault of course.

A new sarcasm meter is on it's way.

It's amazing how many people believe that to be the case.

A scraped derby win and everything in the garden is rosy again

agree agar is the man to take us to better things

It's amazing how many people believe that to be the case.

Nice of you to agree with me yet again

Bit subtle for you mate sorry.

whether he cares or not, it doesn't alter the fact that a narrow win over rovers in a game we could have lost on another day makes not a shred of difference to peoples' concerns about his credentials for the job.

Yeah, almost as subtle as my response

There is going to be plenty of time for that!!!!!

Nor should it. People should stick to their guns if they believe in their position why shouldn't they ? My point was that all he can control is results.

Unless we lose then it's the players not following his game plan?

Unless we win then it's all down to Dennis Moore or having better players than last year ?

No, it's all down to my psychic powers when we win

No wonder we've been struggling.

I'm not sure about that, forgive the football analogy but look at Megson at Bolton.. He made some really good signings and wasn't doing too badly in the league (in the context of what their fans could realistically expect).But, because his style of football was dire and he showed no interest whatsoever in the fan's opinions on him, they ended up hounding him out of his job.

In fairness to Agar he oicked the right team and we won the game so fair play to him. 4th best defence and 5th best attack so far and sitting in 5th place. I'd have took that 9 games ago.

Not a bad analogy but IMO the Board decided a while back to try to develop a young British coach by backing him for 3 years with the signings he wanted and the time they thought he needed. That doesn't seem to me like a scenario where he will easily get the push, although I'd be surprised if there are not target clauses in his new deal. As I said the other day with record ticket sales, bags of sponsorship and no perceivable match day protests from fans over his tenure I don't see a Megson occurring any time soon. We're 60% without playing particularly well attacking wise. Couple of bad hiccups but it looks like the Board are taking a longer term view with this new squad.

so youd be unhappy with wayne benett?

or do you have to be succesful to earn the right?
